Modified on: Fri, 9 Oct, 2015 at 9:15 AM

To add a network printer, please follow these steps:

First, right click on the Start Menu button on the lower right of your screen and choose Control Panel from the resulting menu. (Windows 7 users just need to left click on the Start Menu and choose Devices And Printers).

Change the View By options in the top right to Large or Small Icons. Then in the list, find and click on Devices And Printers.

Click on Add A Printer in the top left of the Devices And Printers window.

Select your desired printer from the list and click on Next. You may get a screen before this asking if you want to add a Network or Local printer. If so, choose Network.

You will eventually get a window that looks like this. Click on Next.

If you have another printer that you will be printer too mainly, then uncheck the Set As The Default Printer checkbox, otherwise keep it checked. If you want to see if it is working, click on the Print A Test Page button. Once done, click on finish and you are good to go.
